Apparently poverty makes you a bad parent:
Children as young as two are to be offered free nursery care in a government drive to intervene in the lives of disadvantaged children at the very earliest stages of their development.
The subsidised places, to be targeted at poorer parents, are part of a major overhaul of early-years learning that children’s secretary Ed Balls will present to the Commons next Tuesday.
I’d love to think that the Guardian is exaggerating, but experience tells me otherwise.
